XRP Ledger ready to adopt tokenized gold, silver in Q3, 2024
As became known from the official X announcement, Meld Gold has established a partnership with Ripple, a San Francisco-based fintech company. As part of the partnership, Meld Gold will launch two new stablecoins backed by silver and gold on XRP Ledger. Per the company's Medium post, each token will represent one gram of the precious metal held by leading custody providers MKS Pamp and Imperial Vaults. The tokens are expected to go live on XRP Ledger in Q3, 2024. Meld Gold CEO Michael Cotton underscored the importance of this release, saying "Integrating XRPL as the second blockchain alongside Algorand is another step towards delivering unmatched access to assets such as gold and silver with industry-leading technologies."
